Ultra Marine

If you're into mitten crabs, caulerpa and colonial tunicates, you'll want to check out the Fifth International Conference on Marine Bioinvasions, to be held at MIT this May 21-24. Judging by the 2003 and 2005 versions, the conference is likely to be very well-attended. Unfortunately, it is also going to be fairly pricey, unless you've got a sponsor ($325, with no daily rate. At least they have a significant student discount: $125!).

Those of you working in the field of marine invasiions should note that the deadline for abstracts has been extended to January 19th. So get going!
